HELP (problems on my pc) Stability and graphics issues

Good afternoon, I set up a computer with:
Box Cooler Master ATX-K380 MidTower USB3.0
SABERTOOTH 990FX R2.0
AMD FX8350 Vishera 4.0GHz Socket AM3 + 8MB
Cooler Cooler Master Hyper T4 -LGA2011/1155/1156/FM1/AM3/AM2
3x-Exacalibur Fan Cooler Master - R4-EXBB-20pk-RO
VGA ASUS ENGTX660 DC II 2GB DDR5 2XDVI - ENGTX660-DC2T-2GD5
ASUS 24X SATA DVDRW Black S / Bulk Software
WESTERN DIGITAL 1TB Hard SATA6Gb 64Mb / s Red
INTEL 60GB SSD Hard 6g (system)
16 gb kimgston predator HyperX 1086mhz 4x4
Source Alim. RAIDER FSP 550W 80Plus Bronze-PCF-Active-ATX,
I'm having problems with system stability when I watch movies and sometimes some games appear to me small squares of various colors on the screen, the computer is very slow and sometimes stops for a few seconds when I try to accelerate the graphics card gpu tweak the screen goes all the squares and off when reconnecting says the driver has recovered from an error.
I wanted to tell me if I have something in the hardware configuration that is wrong (Example. Power supply, video card, memories)

from now thanks

carefully

Are you using the newest video card drivers or the ones off the disc? You mentioned "gpu tweak"...Are you using the ASUS GPU Tweak utility?

Does that issue also apply when you dont tweak the GPU?

Reseat the card in the motherboard. Physically remove the card completely and re-insert it to make sure it is in there properly. Dont just push on it, pull it out and put it back in.

set everything back to stock settings. If everything works at stock just fine then you just may not be able to OC

If you have a better power supply, try that, I am really not liking that low end power supply (why do people always skimp on this area? I used to do it myself)

check your gpu temps and make sure your cooling is working.

Fill us in on what happens and what you have tried so we can try and help further.

This seems like a classic case of overheating. The computer is slow because the CPU is throttleing back to prevent heat damage and you see artifacts because of the GPU overheating as well. You must improve the overall cooling and airflow of your case. I would remove both the CPU and GPU coolers and after cleaning the cores, reapplying a good quality TIM. Make sure you have at least one fan sucking in cold air and one blowing out hot air from the case. Once you improve the cooling, you should see a big difference overall in your computing experience...
